Three Curious Mementoes OF Revelations
Days Preserved In y Delaware Town.

Three Curious Mementoes Of Revolutionary
Days Preserved In = Delaware Town.
One il a silver strainey, which Benja-
min Franklin had ma.se out Of his fret
dollar that he had ever earned. An
other is worn prayer book, which
also belonged to Franklin. In it il
written the name of Betty Parker, a
young girl TO whom he gave it, with
these words Of advice:
eco to church constantly, whoever
breaches. The act Of devotion is your
principal business there, and il properly
attended to, will do more towards
mending the heart than sermons gener-
ally can do. Yet l do not mean that
you should despise sermons, evcnif you
dislike the preacher. for the discourse
is often much better than the man, as
sweet ans clear wascr comes through
very dirty earth
The other memento is of different
character. 1t is a bullet, covered with
a thick coating of rust. At the battle
Of Brandywine General Lafayette was
shot, and fell
General, am wounded" he said to
Washington, as he was carried past the
chief.
Il am sorry for it, was the reply.
'.Sir, am not sorryr' the young
Frenchman answered, quickly.
The bullet had passed throu Oh the
| leg and could be felt under the skin
at the other side. No surgeon came
to dress the wound. A woman named
Bell McClosky cut ont the bullet witt
her scissors and bandaged the leg se
| skilfully that when the surgeon ex
| anined it nothing more was needed
This woman was the wife of poo
soldier who followed her husband t,
every battlefield, and gave what hell
| she could to the wounded and dying
When Lafayette returned to this countr.
in 1924, he visited Delaware, and re
ceived splendid welcome, civil ant
military. But he did not forget tn
woman who had come to his help. Bel
McClosky was brought TO Wilmington
and presented TO him. She had pre-
served the bullet and it is cherished b
her descendants as the memento of
brave man and good woman Youth
Companion.
